- the charge is induced in the rod-like structure light emitting element 210 due to electrostatic induction.
- the rod-shaped structure light emitting element 210 placed in the electric field is caused by the charge being induced on the surface until the internal electric field becomes zero.
- an attractive force is exerted between each electrode and the rod-shaped structure light emitting element 210 by an electrostatic force, and the rod-shaped structure light emitting element 210 follows the lines of electric force generated between the metal electrodes 201 and 202 and also has each rod-shaped structure light emitting element 210.
